    In Mustang Monthly

    My wife's 65 convertible is pictured in the readers album section. They have me listed as having a 71 convertible but I actually have a Mach 1. Glad to be in it. I had sent the picture in at least 6 months ago and forgot about it so it was a surprise.

    Power window clip

    Does anyone have a couple of these clips. They are for holding the bezel in place on the switch. I checked around and can't seem to find them. The only clips I see are for holding the switch in place, not the bezel.

    My air conditioning has a slow leak. I was going to just tighten all the fittings. Is it better to take them apart and use something like pipe tape or dope on the threads? There is no hurry as it is 32 degrees here but its a good winter project. Thanks, Rick
